How to Start Living a Simpler Life
Today's world is rather complex, much too complex for most people to be comfortable in it anymore. This was not always the case, and is largely the result of mankind thinking they know everything and better. God's commandments and guidelines for us are forgotten, for men found a "better" way of doing things. Today's society doesn't like the God of the bible a whole lot, which is probably something you have already heard your parents say when they home schooled you.
So what kind of life does God propose for us? It is a simple life, yet rich in content, not complex beyond grasp, but peaceful and quiet instead. It is a life close to nature, removed from society's hustle and bustle and wickedness - did we not experience that only yesterday in the latest university shootings - and revolving around everything God asks us to do.
A simple life can be lived in the middle of town too, to a degree, of course, for a simple life is first of all an attitude rather than bound to outward circumstances. The foundations of our dream of a simple and godly life we spelled out on this site, just have a look at the other sections.
There is one thing you can do today to start your simple life, and you will be amazed by the freedom it gives you and by just how much more time you have all of a sudden.
If you do this one thing, suddenly your mind will be open and uncluttered again, able to focus on what really matters. You will have time to read the bible, to go for a walk, to cook instead of running through some fast food drive through on your way home from college. You will have time to consider what it really means to be a Christian lady.
So here is the one simple thing you have to do to start a completely different life:
Shut off your TV.
But be warned: Your so called friends in college might not have much to share with you anymore.
